[Tested] Commencal Furious Essential

Apr 2018 · Simon Silver

In September, Commencal USA sent us out their mid-spec’d build of their Freeride oriented Furious, dubbed the Essential.  Featuring an intriguing matte green paint scheme and all black parts, the bike is an eye-catcher, with small details like having even the chain blacked out. SRAM/RockShox handle the suspension, brakes and most of the drivetrain.  E*Thirteen handles the rims, guide and cranks while Maxxis tires, and Commencal house brand seat/post, and grips round off the bike. Let’s dive in… Details and Specs AL 6066 triple butted tubes Oversized pivot bearings Rocker/seat stay integration to form a single piece Internally routed cables/hose Chainstay and Downtube protectors
